Urbane Legend

If you go (exhibits run 10/18-20), sign up now with code AES143NOW (applied on the last page of signup) for a free pass to the exhibits. Not sure how long it's good for, but it worked a few minutes ago.

The AES show is more geared to live sound, installed sound and broadcasting, but there are some companies with DJ related gear ( I saw Audio-Technica, d&b, KV2, L-acoustics, Neutrik, Sennheiser, Shure, TASCAM, and Yamaha listed) ... full list (as of now): AES New York 2017 » List of Exhibitors and Sponsors

If you live in the NYC area and didn't go to DJ Expo (or just want to spend a day in NYC), sign up for the free pass while it's available .. otherwise it goes to $50 and then $75 at the show .. don't pull a Mix

The NAB show is happen the same time. I believe there might be still free presses to that showntoo. With certain passes you're able to attend both. I am going to both but not sure what days. Was in EAWs demo room last year when they demonstrated their steerable system. Unbelievable.
